Book Trailer & Tour Announcement: Legacy - C.J. Daugherty

I really enjoyed C.J. Daugherty's debut novel Night School (in case you missed it you can read my Night School review here) so I was excited to be invited to take part in the blog tour for the sequel Legacy. The tour officially starts on the 3rd of January (my stop will be on the 8th) but in the meantime I want to share with you the fabulous Legacy book trailer:

What do you think of the trailer? Are you as excited about reading Legacy as I am?

Allie Sheridan’s first term at Cimmeria Academy was nothing if not eventful; one student was brutally murdered, she discovered her long lost brother was still alive, she got caught up in a love triangle with the school’s hottest two boys and almost died when the school caught fire. Then there was the whole issue of why her parents had sent her to the secretive boarding school in the first place, something she’s still trying to work out.

Returning to Cimmeria, Allie has little time to reflect on the past term, as she is about to be inducted into Night School, the secret late night student group that could hold the answers to all her questions. Swathed in secrecy, the first rule of Night School is not to talk about Night School. This term Allie will discover the true meaning of Night School and in the process she will learn self-defence, strategy, how to escape from someone who is trying to kill her and ultimately will find out who she is and why she has been sent to Cimmeria.

When Allie discovers that someone inside Night School is sharing information that could risk all their lives, she realises no-one can be trusted. Not her on off boyfriend; the dark and brooding Carter, not her secret school crush; the suave French boy Sylvain, not even the teachers. When the pupil responsible for last term’s murder is seen on school grounds, Allie knows that no one is safe. But before she can figure out what to do, she might just get caught first. Legacy will reveal what Allie Sheridan is truly made of and who she really is.

Legacy deals sensitively with issues of trust, friendship, difficult parent relationships and fitting into new situations.

I also wanted to tell you a little about the fabulous giveaway that Atom are offering as part of the tour. Check out the details below for more information about the Night School Challenge!
